In what way is it sexist? Fujoshi do like boyxboy, that's the whole meaning to it. Is it sexist to say gay men like gay sex? It's literally a preference. I think you're misunderstanding what sexism is. Edit: Also, did you edit in the "mate" part? You should really just post what you want to say and stop stirring up trouble. If you have a problem with me send it in a PM and I'll reply at some point, stop making bad posts. You're making the thread look bad. | ||

And well regarding subjectivity? I am sure my tastes are the very definition of immaculate integrity, free of any bias whatsoever. My credentials of supporting such claims are as follows; basement dweller of over twenty-years, needless to say I am almost a wizard. I have reviewed over ten-years worth of Japanese animation and have written theses about the progression of the medium throughout the past few decades. Due to old money, I current hold a fifty-one percent stake in everything with any relation to Japanese animation including; TV networks, animation companies, figurine factories, crunchyroll and the upcoming streaming platform as well. AOTY is and will always be the same every year, Pokemon for which generates billions of dollars every year. + Show Spoiler + /sarcasm | ||

The sexist part is where you insinuate that women can't like anything but gay sex (lol.) and that they're killing all the quality anime in the industry when a fujoshi pandering show get's made. But then you nominate GuP, a show COMPLETELY about fanservice and moeblob and pandering to the otaku demographic as AOTY. Apprently you think Madoka and Bakemonogatari aren't fanservice and otaku pandering either. Do you not see the problem here? Fujoshi is a blanket term for female otaku. | ||

Much like any award in real life, someone is going to win and that person winning might not be your first choice, but you can still respect the decision because you can see that the anime is well made or whatever. That said, if you can gather up a decent amount of people who hate the thing with positives at all, then it shouldn't be AOTY. But in general I figure AOTY is decided by who shouts the loudest and for what. Sure you can have your own opinion on what wins but it's likely your opinion is much lower valued than that of many more people, and I mean that with no disrespect. If I was to expand on why I think that would be AOTY, it's mostly because it was something fairly different (there's going to be some similarities) that worked well. I don't think it's the best looking anime, and many other things, but it was fairly refreshing compared to most other things. I\m not bashing anyone's opinion, but if it was to be voted for by some sort of judging panel I would come up pretty high. Hmmm.....I mean if that's the case for how to determine an AOTY, then Sword Art Online should have been AOTY in 2012, and Shingeki no Kyojin in 2013 since they're the highest rated thus far in their respective years (at least on MAL, but I'm going to assume it's not going to be too far off in other places) which I guess is the numbers of way of showing how many people are "shouting" for what. Did you know that 64% of all statistics are made up? Also: The difference between something like K-On, which someone used as an example on the other page, and this, is that compared to K-On this is shaping up to be some strange soft-core porn. K-On isn't really sexualized at all, I'm sure there are parts in it that could be, but for the most it isn't. Pretty sure when I was searching around konachan for K-ON wallpapers back when I stilled used them I had to turn off the explicit feature because there were that many explicit pictures that I couldn't find anything that I wanted. Pretty sure you can find plenty of doujins for it too, if that's the case . | ||

Fujoshi is not a blanket word for "female otaku" Edit: I can see a case for SnK being AOTY, or at least AOTS, even though I don't actually like it myself. Some of the characters are drawn really well and the animation is good. Plus the OP is easily the best so far this year. I might pick it up at some point, but it's too grim for my tastes really. Or the first episode was anyway. | ||

I am going to screenshot this for posterity for people who think they know what they're talking about because they read a wikipedia page. And yeah man people DEFINITELY don't use Fujoshi as a catchall that's far from it's original meaning, because everything has to be by the dictionary. | ||

It's still a word though, I mean you don't see it often, but it's still a word. It's like we have plenty of words in English that aren't really used, but they're there. I only really linked incase he was mixed up about that, not that anyone should be. | ||

I think it has a good OP, decent OST from what I've heard right now, lots of action, tears, giants eating things. I mean it just caters to the mainstream anime fan and since it had such an explosive first episode with + Show Spoiler + MC's mom getting eaten Keep in mind that while we might not rate things while the show is out, a lot of people do give ratings to shows while the show is still airing, so you have like a bunch of people who are following the show and have the score at 10/10 at the moment. The majority of anime fans are also more generous with their scores relative to how some people in this thread rate their shows. | ||

A part of it is that it's pretty well executed, a part is that alot otaku like to rate anything with blood / gore highly to show that they have "grown up taste". | ||

I heard the pace has changed a bit with the recent episodes, but that's only what I've heard. I guess you can't have something like that every episode since you'd just run out of people to care about. | ||
